You can do it little baby(ies) Gardner!!

It's official - we will transfer embryos tomorrow. We have to be in Atlanta at 9:30. I have to drink 40 oz of water beginning at 8am so that my bladder is full when they transfer. I hope to get a picture of the embryos to post here. Tomorrow, we will also find out the results of the other embryos (how many we will have to freeze) and hopefully the results of hematology tests.
Tonight at dinner Amy and Troy decided we should have all 8 babies - all at once. They said: Justin and Sandra plus 8 - ha, ha, ha. Then Justin said, no it will be: Sandra plus 8. That's just downright crazy.
We have a serious dog situation. Rufus went for his annual exam today and we learned he has heartworms. They say he must have had them last year (when we got him as a stray) but they weren't far enough along to show up on the test. Since we've been giving him heartworm medicine monthly, it's kept the situation at bay but they will aggressively treat now to kill them all for good. They gave/will give him 2 shots and keep him for 24 hours at the vet. They say the shots are rough. I visited him this afternoon and it was very evident he didn't feel well. Poor Rufus!
When Justin gave me my shot tonight (with Amy in observance) he hit a blood vessel - that's the first time it's ever happened. You have to pull the needle out and start over.
We are glad Amy is recovering nicely from her calamitous fall and ensuing plastic surgery. And Congratulations for finishing her MBA this week!! Go Amy!
I'll update you tomorrow on the little baby Gardners.
